1 Practical Introduction to Multiphase Flow Metering Location: Christian Michelsen Research, Fantoftvegen 38, Bergen (NORWAY) Next courses: - November 29-December 1, April 24-26, November 27-29, 2012

2 Multiphase Flow Metering Key words: Practical introduction to the basics of multiphase flow measurements including the presentation of three specific multiphase flow meters. Some of the content is based upon NFOGM s handbook in multiphase metering. Learning goals: Basic knowledge and understanding of multiphase metering and selected multiphase metering technologies. Learning techniques: The training sessions consist of lectures as well as discussions based on the participants' own experiences and needs. Interactive exercises and demonstrations in Christian Michelsen Research's flow loop facility will also be an integrated part. Target group: Instrumentation or measurement technicians, process engineers, or other technical staff, personnel in service- or supply companies, managers or others who need intermediate-level understanding of and insight in multiphase metering. Prerequisites: 2-5 years of experience with flow metering.

4 MIMT has currently 3 research partners (CMR, University of Bergen, and Bergen University College) and 7 industry partners (AADI, CGGVeritas, FMC Metering, MMC Tendos, Roxar, Statoil) CMR Instrumentation CMR Instrumentation is a business unit of Christian Michelsen Research AS (CMR) and represents more than three decades of continuous R&D work on advanced measurement solutions for liquid and gas measurements within the oil and gas industry. The research and development of advanced measurement technologies has enabled significant industrial product development, and the establishment of new business ventures within the oil and gas industry. NFOGM The Norwegian Society for Oil and Gas Measurement is an independent society for personnel engaged in measurement of oil and gas in the Norwegian oil and gas business. The Society's technical activities include flow measurement, sampling and online quality measurement in processing and transportation facilities. NFOGM has developed several handbooks within flow metering that provide guidance and recommendations to the industry. This includes the handbook that is part of the background for this course. Our Instructors Eivind Dahl (MSc University of Bergen 1998) is Vice President of CMR Instrumentation and has more than ten years of experience within R&D and technology development for oil & gas instrumentation. His main interests are smart wells and downhole instrumentation. He is a board member of the Underwater Technology Foundation where he also has been the chairman, and has been a Deputy Member of the Demo 2000 Executive Steering Group. He has authored more than 25 publications and participated in establishing 4 industry best practice handbooks on both metering and uncertainty calculations. Kjetil Folgerø (PhD University of Bergen 1997) is a Senior Scientist in the Department of Multiphase Metering at CMR and has more than 12 years of experience in design of sensors and instrumentation based on electromagnetic technology and design of microwave circuitry. His main interest is sensors for permittivity measurement of petroleum fluids. He is also an external examiner at several academic institutions and has been a lecturer. He has authored more than 20 publications. Kjell-Eivind Frøysa (PhD University of Bergen 1991) is Manager of the Department for Fiscal Metering Oil & Gas at CMR Instrumentation and has more than 18 years of experience in this field. His main interests are fiscal metering, acoustic technologies for fiscal metering, and uncertainty calculations. He has been a member of the program committee of the Underwater Technology Foundation and the educational committee for Physics 4

5 and Technology at the University of Bergen, and the Mathematics Council of Norway. He has authored more than 60 publications and participated in establishing 3 industry best practice handbooks on the subject. Anders Hallanger (M.Sc, University of Bergen, 1982) is a Senior Scientist in the Department of Instrumentation at CMR, and has more than 10 years of experience in multiphase metering. His main interests are multiphase metering, flow simulation and flow modelling. He is also member of AIAA, has authored 19 publications and participated in establishing industry best practice handbooks on the subject. Marie Bueie Holstad (PhD, University of Bergen 2004) is Manager of the Department of Multiphase Metering at CMR Instrumentation and has more than 5 years of experience in multiphase flow metering. Her main interests within the field are nucleonic measurement methods, in particular utilization of scattered and transmitted gamma rays. She has authored or co-authored more than 15 publications. 5
